Just had A MRI done.....I have 2 herniated discs- one worse than the other. They recommend an epidural in the next week or so to help with pain and to help the discs get better. My back is pretty much pain free but the pain down the leg is constant and my hamstrings are super tight at night time most days.
My back was a mess three weeks ago-but better now. Been going to physical therapy for 6 weeks and not much change in sciatic type pain relief.
Who has had a herniated disc or two and what helped you the most? Did the epidural help out and what is long term success with this? I am dreading the thought of standing on trolling pedal knowing that its going to be not fun. Anyone have the discs go back to normal without surgery? Advice , how to treat,,etc?
Looking for some positive news as I am only 48 years old...….
